Integration instructions
Integrates your DApp with the Cardano Wallet
Metamask snap. This means that in order to log into your DApp, it is enough for the user to have Metamask installed, removing the need for having a Cardano-specific wallet set up.
Demo
Example dapp with the current version of SDK is deployed here.
Example integration can be found in https://github.com/nufi-official/adaplays.xyz which is a forked/updated version of playground cardano dapp.
We recommend to check usage of @nufi/dapp-client-core
and @nufi/dapp-client-cardano
in File where most of the changes are contained. Alternatively just searching for the usage of these libraries should showcase all relevant steps in the integration.
The other changes made to this repository are specific to its example dapp, so we do not recommend focusing on them.
Install packages
NPM
Yarn
Usage
Make sure that your app's Content Security Policy does not block the iframe that is injected by our SDK. For more info please check iframe injection docs.
Initialize core SDK
The init
function has to be called before calling other functions from @nufi/dapp-client-core
or @nufi/dapp-client-cardano
SDK.
Its advisable to call it as soon as possible as it will also prefetch the Widget, and will make it appear faster when being requested later on.
If no origin is passed to init
it defaults to https://wallet.nu.fi
. Note that this default will not work until officially released.
For now please use the origin from the above example.
To customize Widget appearance (such as z-index), please see Widget options
Check whether user has Metamask installed
Note that the Widget handles cases when users do not have Metamask installed. Therefore its fine to always show some "Login with MetaMask" button on your dapp.
If you nevertheless wish to detect whether the MetaMask is installed, you can do it via the following call:
Initialize Snap login for Cardano
The initNufiDappCardanoSdk
will populate window.cardano.nufiSnap
object which has methods corresponding to CIP-30 standard.
See multiple providers docs to use initNufiDappCardanoSdk
correctly, when supporting multiple providers.
HideWidget
Use this method to close the Widget in case user logs out using your dapp.
Show widget
When calling CIP-30 enable
method the Widget will be shown automatically.
Therefore if you detect (possibly a flag in your localStorage) that users is logged in you can simply call the enable
method to make the Widget visible.
Selecting Extension provider
For users with NuFi extension installed, there are no specific actions required. Simply access window.cardano.nufi
from anywhere as it is not controlled by the NuFi Widget SDK.
Note on Cardano Collaterals
If your Cardano DApp calls getCollateral(), for best UX please make sure to do so only when really needed, otherwise users may get needlessly prompted by the NuFi widget to set up a collateral even if they don't have to. Even better would be to use CIP-40 which lets you use regular inputs as collateral, i.e. removes the need to request collateral explicitly from the wallet.
Whitelist
On-off ramp service
If you want a service user to be able to purchase crypto inside the widget using a fiat on-ramp (powered by Moonpay), your DApp's domain needs to be whitelisted. Please contact us and specify the domains to be whitelisted.
Once whitelisted you will need to use this extension for local testing, or ensure that your dapp is locally accessible via http://localhost
or https://localhost
(i.e. no port number in the URL).
